Product Description
Nissan Altima 1993-1997 Sedan Pillar Trim, Four Mirror Stainless Pieces (PP93550)
PP93550 is a four-piece set of mirror-polished stainless steel pillar covers for the Nissan Altima. QAA lists it for the 4-door sedan from model year 1993 through 1997, and the covers are made in the USA from 304 stainless.
With a matching gas door cover
The one part QAA links to this kit is the GC93550 gas door cover for the same sedan. If you want a second polished accent on the Altima, that is the natural companion part. It is sold separately. This pillar kit has no gas-door function; it simply dresses the pillars.
Coverage
The data gives no coverage note, so the catalog does not say which posts the four covers dress. The product photos show the pieces, and we are happy to help by phone.
Model years and body
Nissan Altima, 4-door sedan: 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, and 1997. The Fitment tab shows the record.
The stainless
26-gauge 304 stainless steel, polished to a mirror. There is no plating involved, so the shine will not chip or lift, and all four covers share the same finish.
Mounting
3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape is used, and the kit installs over the existing surface. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without causing damage to the vehicle surface.
Surface first
On an Altima from the nineties, clean any years of wax from the pillars and check the paint first. Clean, dry, and de-wax each pillar thoroughly. Repair any spot where the paint is loose. The tape can only hold as firmly as the paint it bonds to.
Installing
Choose a dry, mild day. Hold each cover against its pillar with the liner still on and compare it with the photos. Once it lines up, peel the liner and press firmly from end to end. Fit one Altima cover, step back, then match the next. Avoid washing for a few days. The Installation tab gives the full sequence.
Keeping the four covers even
Use fixed reference points, such as the edge of the door and the corner of the window, so each later cover matches the first. Adjust during the dry-fit, not after pressing.
Why pillar covers
They give the side glass a crisp, bright border and leave the factory pillars untouched underneath. For a sedan that is still a daily driver, it is an easy cosmetic upgrade.
Care
Wash with mild soap, rinse, and dry with a soft towel. Skip abrasive pads and polishing compounds.
Handling
Keep the covers on a soft surface and avoid touching exposed adhesive.
Before ordering
Confirm the year and body style on your registration. If you plan to fit the GC93550 gas door cover, ordering both together lets you prep the car once and finish the job in a single afternoon. And if the car has had replacement doors or body work, compare the photos with your pillars first.

Installation tips: Pillar Post Trim
- Unpack all 4 pieces and match each one to its position on the vehicle, using the product photos, before fitting any of them.
- Each piece mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, so clean and dry the mounting surface first; the tape needs paint or trim free of dirt and wax.
- Align the piece and press it firmly into place directly over the existing surface, working along its full length so the tape bonds evenly.
- Fit one piece at a time and compare each with the product photos and the pieces already in place.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
